First car show - class winner

You guys have seen my Black/Raven 1987 Turbo coupe I purchased recently.

I entered it in a car show here at work (Ford), and I won "class winner" in my class (late model Ford). There were about 75-80 cars at the show.

I didn't expect it, so I was stoked!!

Got a "class winner" trophy, and a few high fives from my buddies here.

I also met the 2nd owner of my Turbo Coupe at the car show. His buddy who had done a lot of wrenching on the car came up to me and said "thats Greg R.'s car, isn't it". I said "in fact it was". He said "well, Greg will be here in about 15 minutes".

When I met Greg at the show, I could tell he was bummed he got rid of the car. He is driving a Taurus now. His wife made him get rid of it, as she couldn't push in the clutch (Centerforce).

I learned a lot of the history of my car at this car show in talking to the previous owner and his mechanic buddy.

Nice. My wife won't push in JR's clutch; not that she can't, she won't. Refuses to learn to drive a stick, and I'm not about to tell her what she's missing; I might loose my baby if she discovers how much fun she's missing!

Congrats on the Best of Class!

Congrats!! You have to post some pics. I think that's one of the rules - "Win a trophy, post some pics".
